Need Help Translating Chinese Characters

Would like to know the name of this scenic view in China depicted on this glass tile - and the artist if possible.  Thanks for your help.

It starts out 庐山龙首岩 (Dragon Head Cliff, Mount Lu). (I can't figure out the last three characters - you might want to ask on https://www.reddit.com/r/translator/ for those.) The characters inside the red seal appear to be simply 庐山 (Mount Lu, or Lushan). The presence of simplified characters points to mid-1950s or later manufacturing date for your piece.

 

There are many photographs of the cliff online, it looks a really stunning location.
